ATI Stream SDK v2.0 Released

AMD has released the production version of the ATI Stream SDK 2.0.

ATI Stream technology is a set of hardware and software technologies that enable AMD graphics processors (GPU), working in concert with the system's central processor (CPU), to accelerate many applications beyond just graphics. This enables better balanced platforms capable of running demanding computing tasks faster.

The ATI Stream Software Development Kit (SDK) is a complete development platform created by AMD to allow developers to develop applications accelerated by ATI Stream technology. The SDK allows the development applications in a high-level language, OpenCL (Open Computing Language).

OpenCL is an open and royalty-free programming standard for general-purpose computations on heterogeneous systems. OpenCL allows programmers to preserve their source code investment and target both multi-core CPUs and the latest GPUs, such as those from AMD.
